So... downtime eh?

[centerededgedesign]

The specs for the T2 Sentries show they do the same damage as the T1's, but have more shield and armor hp's. I think the only extra requirement for skills was Sentry Drone V as well.

So I doubt they'll get nerfed at least! I am thinking that training BC to V would make them pretty evil though, with all the bonus of a Domi for drones, and the 7.5% rep amount per level, the Myrm will be pretty mean w/ drones!

First I need all my buildy skills trained though, so will be a bit before I get to combat stuffs. But I did pick up all 3 sizes of blaster specialization skills from my nice agents last night. LP store will be fun and rejuvenate the mission scene I think. Running a few level 5's should net enough LP for CNR bp's, so I wonder what the larger prizes are going to be!

u bought gun specialization from LP store? thats wierd why not right off of market in skills section and save LP for the missions skill books that give you more LP %

running a few lvl 5 will not get u a CNR but a bunch will. also got to remember the lvl 5 are group activity not solo so even if you get 15k LP per mission but bring 5 people then your only making 1/2 the LP as a lvl 4 mission. i get what your saying tho should be fun. will be interesting to see how hard it will be to get people together to do them missions - i know hulk is down now who else?

Were you looking at the damage or the damage modifier? The damage modifier will be the bit that changed.

How much LP do lvl 5s pay out? Didn't think it was that much, I dont really like the idea of nuking my standings with other factions though.

I bought the books from LP store because they cost me 0 isk, and I'm broke atm from doing only corp work when I'm on. But I also bought some Gallente Drone skillbooks for 0 isk as well to use up my LP, (since I'm not planning on using those agents again in the near future), and tossed them on the market cheap, but still enough to make some isk.

And Lee, you were correct, the damage modifier on the T2's is 1.68 vs. 1.4. A bit of a boost.


And back to the CNR point, my thought was a group getting together to earn CNR bpc's as a group to build/sell, or just build for corp. With the loot/salvage from those missions, (assuming full salvage), you could probably build them for free from a day of missioning, at least if you did it with an alliance-wide op! And I think you can turn in those missions individually, so as to keep that LP concentrated to one person, assuming that one person is trustworthy enough to spend it for the good of his gang-mates. Kinda like our mission ops, one person gets the LP and spends it for the good of all sorta thing. Any bounties would just be personal profit!

ofc, it remains to be seen what DS's work out like w/ the new non-static DS's that must be scanned down. I want to look at the map and see what options there are now, since you won't be able to list DS's now.

cool didn't know about them skill books on LP store and no isk even better, glad to c u got what u needed from it.

CNR idea needs more thought i think. The amount of participation for everyone to get CNR's or sell them is a lot of work. Missioning 12+ hours a day, 7 days a week may get 1 member a CNR. When I was working for my CNR I grinded and grinded and grinded some more. Took me almost 1 month to get 2x CNR offer. Now offers have changed so you can get it once you reach the LP level but I don't see that much corp work everyday to get it done. love the corp but not everyone enjoys missions like i do so i c after 2 days it falling apart.

now if your saying July 1st 2008 (next year) everyone in corp will have a CNR then it may work. lets say everyone likes that idea then lets get it done but insteead of CNR how about faction BS then more people will like it (Navy Tempest and Megathron pilots )

to be honest though before we decide what to do with all the LP we should work as a group and do some lvl 5 and see if thats the way to achieve the goal you suggested. then check out the supposedly better loot lvl 5's drop and way the rewards. there will be plenty risk missioning in LS

PS

the corp decides to do something like that and people participate regularly I will contribute my LP for the project. Caladari Police horse its about 350k+ LP Kaa its almost 300k LP now. Corp can have 1 of them as long as i c seriousness and not just 1 or 2 other people doing it.

I've petitioned it now anyway, will see what they say.

Were you definitly on tranquility as when I first patched it tried to put me on Sisi...

[Hehulk]

He set the skill pre-patch

[bomberesque]

what fab means (and it happened to me too) is that the client tried to connect to Sisi instead of tranq on the first startup after the patch (default reset to SiSi for some reason

[fabyak]

If they were monkeying around with Sisi, it may have appeared that he had lost training time had he logged onto it whereas it may be fine if he goes onto Tranq
